Just thought about it, Mou throw two statements: 1. It's Rooney or nothing, no CM will come. 2. There is no way anyone would leave.

Now if Rooney will come, a striker most leave, Jose knows that and he still made that statement. I want to think its a sign that those statements are not very serious.

One has to reckon, having players like Mikel, van Ginkel, the ex-bison in a midfield that has seen Lampard, Deco, Ballack, The Bison, Makelele is the mother of all downgrades. De Rossi would bring a bit of glamour back

He's an over-hyped Mr Motivator. He's got no god given ability. He's advanced basically nothing after 6 years or something?

On a serious note, I'm going to watch him with hawk-eye next game.

You should., he got your entire midfield in his pocket at several occasions at Old Trafford - even though he completely lost it at others.

Btw. how confident are you going in the next season? Doesn't it worry you that last season a Chelsea team which was far from vintage dominated you in all 5 encounters and would have won all 5 if it wasn't for some very dodgy refereeing? The one thing I always admired about Utd was their incredible killer-instinct and ability to grind out result while being completely outplayed. I also associated this ability with Ferguson...not so with Moyes. Meanwhile you missed out on Strootman, Fabregas and will most probably miss out on Modric, too. If you still had ferguson, I would be sure you would compete despite your average squad, but now I can't see you catch up with City's killer team.

Rudi Garcia likes him compared to the old coach, ever since he joined hes given really positive interviews about him wanting to see de rossi and strootman work together in midfield...plus joses interview confirming Rooney as the only target...pretty much ensures we're out of the hunt for a midfielder...anyways Jose himself also said we have too many midfielders atm 5 players for 2 positions so unless we let someone go, doubt any midfield move is happening

Don't forget the portugues Tiago that was no slouch either.

With MvG keep showing us his best, it's getting more obvious that we wont get de rossi :(

Not if we sell Mikel to Galatasaray ...

... I do hope that deal goes through and we get De Rossi because Mikel is just absolutely useless at the moment ...

... the same can be said about Essien really.. he looked lost against Roma, but keeping him is vital if we want to have defensive midfield options.

Indeed..

Let's just hoping that jose really knows the best things for our midfield area.

Still

----De Rossi

Ramires--Lamps

would be one awesome midfield. Just like the good old one with Maka and Ess.

Preseason has indicated that 4-3-3 will still play a part and for a mid 3, 5 players are not enough. And you can't rely on Essien and van Ginkel (yet) in big matches, so no one should mind DDR here.

Nonetheless, I reckon he is not coming.
